Don't forget what I discovered that over ninety percent of all national deficits from 1921 to 1939 were caused by payments for past, present, and future wars.

Not only our future economic soundness but the very soundness of our democratic institutions depends on the determination of our government to give employment to idle men.

A conservative is a man with two perfectly good legs who, however, has never learned how to walk forward.

I think we consider too much the good luck of the early bird and not enough the bad luck of the early worm.

There is nothing I love as much as a good fight.

Let us never forget that government is ourselves and not an alien power over us. The ultimate rulers of our democracy are not a President and senators and congressmen and government officials, but the voters of this country.

The only sure bulwark of continuing liberty is a government strong enough to protect the interests of the people, and a people strong enough and well enough informed to maintain its sovereign control over the goverment.

Not only our future economic soundness but the very soundness of our democratic institutions depends on the determination of our government to give employment to idle men.

The United States Constitution has proved itself the most marvelously elastic compilation of rules of government ever written.

No government can help the destinies of people who insist in putting sectional and class consciousness ahead of general weal.
